My Windows egg-link file (PYTHONHOME\Lib\site-packages\leo.egg-link):

D:\code-maphew\leo-editor
.

An alternative is to sym- or hardlink "{extracted code 
location}/leo-editor-master/leo" to "$PYTHONHOME/Lib/site-packages/leo".


In both cases to launch Leo from command line a wrapper needs to be put in 
"$PYTHONHOME/Scripts" that resembles launchLeo.py from repo root:

#!/usr/bin/env python
""" Leo launcher script A minimal script to launch leo """
import leo.core.runLeo
leo.core.runLeo.run()

Also important to know is that only ./leo and subfolders count for 
anything. The repo root folder is invisible and ignored.

Hope that helps!
